This is a rare original post war Bestlite BL1 desk lamp dating from around the late 1940's designed by Robert Dudley Best for Best & Lloyd. Heavily influenced by the Bauhaus movement, Robert Dudley Best is regarded as one of the great modernist designers and the Bestlite is recognised as a design icon, helped in no small part by the fact that Winston Churchill had one on his desk! The lamp is fully extendable and adjustable and would look stunning in a mid-century modern or contemporary home setting.
These true British design classics are becoming very desirable and are going up in value all the time.
